Just wanted to say that I love this story, and can't wait to see more. Ginny and Draco both manage to be very in cannon even though this plot takes us far away from traditional haunts.
Keep it up, I can't wait to see more of your work.
Author's Response: Ves and Myn say: It’s fun to see how far we can stretch the characters setting-wise and still keep them true to canon. Glad it’s working for you!!
Hehehe! I love this story :D I've never read any other D/G plot like this! ^^ Can't wait to see what happens next!
Author's Response: Ves and Myn say: Not to toot our own horn, but there isn’t another fic like this and that’s been part of the fun of writing it. It’s quite a departure from what both of us usually do in our individual work and that’s made it a fun and challenging project. Glad you are enjoying it and thanks for taking a second to review!
I've read up to chapter thirteen all in one go and I love it! You have an amazing skill and you are working it well.
Keep up the good work *cookies*

Author's Response: Ves and Myn say: Thanks so much! *munch*
Ginny and Draco working together eating Tiramisu.....again, priceless. Loved this and I'm looking forward to the next one!
Author's Response: Ves and Myn say: Thanks so much!!
I love this chapter. Exactly how old is Ginny? I was wondering. Great story, I luv the D/G. Please update as soon as u can. Great writing.
Author's Response: Ves says: Err….I am sure we have an established age for Ginny. Um, early twenties? Anyone? Maybe 25 or so? Myn??rn
rnMyn says: Okay, she would've left Hogwarts at 17, say she left the Burrow at 18 - did we say how long she's been working for Narcissa? *head hurts* Math is hard.rn
great chapter! cant wait untill yous update agian!
Author's Response: Ves and Myn say: We can’t wait either! Except for the long delay that might lead some people to believe we can wait – Wow, can we wait. Thanks!
well, i'm glad that molly wasn't upset at the thought of draco as a son-in-law, but there's only flirting! i'm of half a mind to tell you to just throw in some smut for kicks, but that would probably ruin the plot. or! or you could make it a dream! no plot ruining! whatever you decide, i'm still hooked though. i absolutely love the story, and it's unusual, very unique. never read anything like it, which makes it even more addictive. keep it up!
Author's Response: Ves says: It would have be mindless, somewhat pointless smut at this stage of the game. Thrilled you are enjoying it! rn
rnMyn says: I think I want to keep the main storyline topping out at PG, and anyway they're nowhere near ready to do anything like that. Thank goodness you're hooked enough to where you don't need it. ;)rn
Wow.
I really enjoyed this chapter, it was lovely. Good job depicting Draco and Ginny's conversation and relationship styles. Completely believable, in an unlikely situation. Loved it. Keeeeeeep it up! :)
Author's Response: Ves says: “Completely believable, in an unlikely situation.” – Oooh! I like that. Many thanks!rn
rnMyn says:Thank you! I like to think that we write the dialogue in such a way as to show their distinct personalities. :Drn
To be upfront, I was nervous about reading another "young girl in the cutthroat fashion industry" but you did a good job with this. I'm not a fan of Ginny working in the fashion world but her character is strong and interesting. I like that she isn't immediately attracted to Malfoy and has a steady head on her shoulders. This is the personality I would've imagined for her if the HP books were from her pov.
I would like to see more about how she was affected after the fall of Voldemorte as well as what is going on with Harry. Please don't make Harry into a pathetic character. He deserves to be happy after being faced with death in every single book:P
Great job, please keep it up.
Author's Response: Ves says: I’d be nervous too. Some of those can be not so great. Glad you are enjoying this and I think at the very least, we’ve shown how Ginny kind of got dragged into this career, rather than chasing the profession all starry-eyed.rn
rnMyn says: And I promise that the breathless description of clothes will be kept strictly limited. As for Harry, I'll try. I don't remember if he's even in the story - I really need to review the notes.rn
Way cool! I like it a lot!
Author's Response: Ves and Myn say: Hooray! Thrilled you do.rn
i love it... it is beautifully written and it makes os much scence... love it! ****
Author's Response: Ves and Myn say: Glad it does and glad you are enjoying it!
Haha I love it! Please update!
Author's Response: Ves and Myn say: Thanks!
well this has been really fun. it's been a long time since i've read fanfic, but being on bedrest will change that! so, i think it's fun so far. i was a little unclear on the shot of ginny with her bum showing. for some reason i just couldn't picture it in my head, but i did get the idea of it. i'll be looking forward to more updates whenever they arrive!
Author's Response: Ves says: Oh dear. We went round and round with our descriptions of those shots because they seemed rather confusing. Pooh.rn
rnMyn says: I should put this in our next chapter, but what I was thinking with that one was a pose like Betty Grable's famous swimsuit shot. (If you google Betty Grable, it'll show up first thing on the images.)rn
Dangit! I was so hoping there was more of this! I started today and absolutely love it.
Ginny's emergence into 'supermodeldome' was unexpected but readily accepted. I am enjoying how a DG relationship isn't immediately thrown into this such as "Oh, I didn't realize how handsome he is until he started being nice, etc" which gets annoying. Fast
And draco being nice can easily be pointed to their new positions together.
I loved the scene with the hogwart's kid.
everything is wonderful and I want to say "update" but I'd rather you guys take your time because whatever your doing has been perfect.
Author's Response: Ves says: Amen to that! I love fluff and smut as much as the next girl but I’d like to think it would take more than one or two moments of politeness and a pretty face to turn Ginny’s head. And Draco has been nothing but professional – so far. Thanks so much for the kind words and encouragement!rn
rnMyn says: Yeah, while occasionally love at first politeness can be okay, you have to wonder at the long-term prospects of an enduring and mature relationship from such an instant infatuation.rn
I've really enjoyed reading this. I went though a spell of getting drawn in and losing interest half way through a lot of fics- haha, I was starting to think the well had run dry and I'd read all the things that needed to be read, but I just wanted to tell you that I think it's great- humorous, appealing, and well-written:)
Author's Response: Ves says: High praise indeed! Thanks so much!rn
rnMyn says: You have to pan a lot of river to find the gold dust - glad to know we're among the gold.rn
This is a very well made piece. I've read some corporate D/G fiction, but this, I have to say, is the most believable. Honestly, This somehow reminds me of "Ugly Betty", why? Well I have no idea. Anyway, do keep up the good work. Your writing style is definitely enjoyable. Updates are very very appreciated. :-)
Author's Response: Ves says: Well I can assure you this was in progress long before Ugly Betty. I don’t watch that one myself – but I’ve heard wonderful things and I will take that as a compliment. Thanks so much!rn
rnMyn says: I think it's the setting, and Draco's a teensy bit like Daniel, although not quite as big a manwhore.rn
Great Chapter!
Author's Response: Ves and Myn say: Thanks so much! We are glad you’re enjoying it!
Oh my god!...I've been trying to finish reading this fic since last year...and it'll probably take a few more years to actually finish reading it!...I love it...I love the way you are showing Draco's charecter transformation. I love everything about it! Keep writing...I hope you finish it in a few decades!
Author's Response: Ves says: *laughs* Well, I think we’ve been trying to write it for at least that long so we’re even. Draco, I’d like to think, has had some time to grow up and decide what sort of name he’d like to make for himself. Being young, handsome and rich – he certainly has a way with les femmes but I was dying to see him in a job that he enjoyed and wanted to excel at. We don’t see him care about much of anything in the books, but I’ve always been fond of the fanon that has him wanting to excel and uphold the family name.rn
rnMyn says: If there was nothing more to him than just a rich boy happy to spend the rest of his life lounging around, with occasional pauses for sex and shopping, I wouldn't want to write about him. Okay, maybe for a short story or PWP, but still. There has to be some kind of motivating factor to get him out of bed in the morning.rn
I've really enjoyed this story and look forward to the next installment. Keep up the great work!
Author's Response: Ves and Myn say: Thanks so much! We are glad you’re enjoying it!
I love it!!!!!! I'm not trying to be pushy- but I really can't wait for the next update! Toodles!
Author's Response: Ves and Myn say: Thanks so much! We are glad you’re enjoying it!
I absolutly LOVE this story, and can't wait to read more :)
I don't normally leave reviews, but I read all 13 chapters a few days ago (at work no less :S Naughty me) and realized that ANY story that can keep my captivated for that long definitly deserves credit!
Author's Response: Ves says: I’m just glad to know I’m not the only one who slacks off at work because of this story! Thanks for taking the special time and effort to leave a review for this fic! Hope it continues to delight!rn
rnMyn says: *gasp!* You naughty girls!rn
This is awfully good. I hope the irritating demands haven't got you giving up on it completely. I especially like how you manage to retain the complete tone shift and focus (from fantasy story-ish to Devil Wears Prada-ish) while remaining true to the fantasy elements.
That made no sense. What I mean is you guys kept the spirit of the wizarding world while introducing a completely different substance - you didn't just make it AU, or ignore all the---
It's just good. I look forward to reading more. Don't let that dirty Harry22 get you down.
Author's Response: Ves says: It’s been an interesting blending of genres. And I can’t speak for Myn, but for me the understanding readers more than make up for the cranky ones!rn
rnMyn says: There's no getting us down for long, and I totally agree re: the awesome reviewers as opposed to the nasty ones.rn
Yes! Draco-Ginny interaction! Muahahha! . . . Sorry, haven't slept in a while, thus am inordinately amused by the occasional witty interlude. Please ignore my ramblings, and simply know that I loved the chapter - especially the comment about compliments no longer being backhanded - and am hoping (without pressure) that more will come eventually.
Author's Response: Ves and Myn say: Thanks so much! We are glad you’re enjoying it!
Hello :-) You have a wonderful story here, and I can't wait for more chapters! Please add soon!
Ah, nothing like a good D/G not-fluffy fanfic!
Author's Response: Ves and Myn say: Thanks so much! We are glad you’re enjoying it!
I hope you guys get to update soon :). I know there are many avid readers waiting in antsy anticipation ;)!
Author's Response: Ves and Myn say: Antsy anticipation is a nice way of putting it. At this point, “Baying for our blood” might be more to the point. *wink* Thanks and glad you are enjoying!
